Hey guys, just curious what your favorite genres are, besides VGM :P I think it's important to have a variety of musical interests, so I started this thread.

Just name what genres you like and some artists that you enjoy, if you want.

My personal favorite genres are trance, alternative, R&B, metal/hardcore, jazz fusion, and of course VGM. Probably a couple more but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head

My favourite genre is classic rock, followed by some regular rock. Also, in a similar category with vg music, i also like soundtracks for movies; i like the ones that have particularly catchy beats/tunes or have a lot of emotion.

I so was gonna post a thread just like this.

I like classic rock, alternative rock, and nu-metal. I highly dislike rap, but I like some R and B, like Rihanna =)

Film scores are amazing. My favorite right now is Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End. The new love suite melody is beautiful and it carries throughout the album. Its amazing.

I'm also a pretty big filmscore buff - John Williams is the best there is. Jerry Goldsmith and Basil Poledouris are also favourites of mine. I have to say though (with the chance of becoming unpopular) I really hate the music from "Remote Control". Especially Steve Jablonsky, Klaus Badelt and Hans Zimmer - It's all stappy strings and poweranthems for horns. Though I do like Badelt's "The Time Machine" - the first half anyway.

Other than that, it's mostly classical, especially eastern european and Russian composers, like Stravinsky, Dvorak and Mussorgsky.
I also listen to rock from the "British Invasion" era.

I forgot to mention that I enjoy classical; Rachmaninov is my favorite classical artist by far.

Lol, and I do also like soundtracks from movies, yes John Williams is the best!

Although I'm not a fan of Harry Potter I think it's main theme is amazing (I believed it was composed by Williams).

And I'm glad that people here don't like rap. can't stand that shat

My favorite movie soundtrack would probably be Twilight, but I hate the movie.

My favorite movie single soundtrack would be The Perfect Drug from Lost Highway.
